xpandvistafan Posted March 28, 2022 Posted March 28, 2022 Well now, 2 years after the shutdown, https://mpgame5.games.msn.com no longer exists, and now https://freegames.zone.com has been repurposed for other games. I still wonder if it is possible for someone to make a custom server for this.

I suppose one could redirect the old checkers to the new server, maybe. I have no clue how to do that though. Sorry to reply to such an old post, but did you ever get a chance to intercept the requests to the server during gameplay when it was working? It would help with reverse engineering the game. Also, do you remember if it connected to the server via https? If it did, that is probably a reason it was shutdown, because for Windows ME to connect using https, it would need to use really old outdated cipher suites and a SHA-1 certificate. 1
owlla2 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Can someone explain the solution and give the game exe files whose server is running?
